Toffee Almond Oatmeal Cookies

I confess that I don’t often bake with whole wheat flour. I think that’s due more to habit than taste. But, it can be a great substitute for traditional flour in many recipes, like this one.

I am fairly confident that if you tasted one of these without knowing the list of ingredients, you’d never guess that they are made with whole wheat flour. In fact, of all the cookies in my recent baking memory, these are probably in the top 10.

These cookies are everything I love about oatmeal cookies – lots of oats, brown sugar, and cinnamon. For some added interest and crunch, I tossed in some toffee chips and toasted almonds. Pretty tasty, if I do say so myself!

Hi, Lorry. You can substitute all-purpose flour, but you may need to reduce the amount of flour. I’ve not tried the substitution in this recipe, so I can’t give you a definitive answer. I would suggest to add all but a couple of tablespoons of flour and then decide if your dough needs the remaining flour.
